Wow! It really has been years since I was last on my blog. to much has happen to write about now. I am a senior in colloge my oldest is a senior in high school. I was sitting here thinking if I could only stop time for a moment and just remember all the good days that have since past.. It makes me sad to think about all the great times we used to have together as a family. New chapters are starting for our family and it is a very sad time for me as a mother, but I know the Lord has great plans for our family, no matter what is going on right now. I Love you to the moon and back and dont ever forget that! As one door closes another one is going to open

I was just laying there on the couch with my youngest son and i started thinking about how much food i used to eat… Very scary really! I used to go to this pizza place named CiCi’s Pizza and order one of there LARGE pizza for my self and sit there and eat the whole thing. WOW! That’s a lot of food, not only that but tons and tons of fat and carbs my body didn’t need but i would do it almost twice a week. See before my surgery i couldn’t have dairy products so i would order the pizza with no cheese, as the rest of my family would go and eat the rest of it. My whole thought process was i don’t want this to go to waste and they wont let you take it home, so i had to eat it. This is just one thought about how much food i use to eat, today I don’t eat pizza, I don’t eat bread and I’m careful of the carbs i do consume. if my family gets pizza i might take a piece and eat the toppings off of it. I couldn’t eat that much now even if i tried, my little tummy couldn’t hold it all…. Have you ever thought about how much you used to eat? Its scary really I Praise the Lord He has shown me a new way to look at food and how to eat it right. Now I’m showing my 3 children how to eat right and I Pray my husband is watching too. We don’t eat out that much any more and when we do, I share off someones plate and so does my youngest. So the next time you go out to eat really think about how much you eat, it might shock you how much you really eat……..

We all have them. Some are wonderful, others are not that great. Some are close and some are distant.

I find people interesting; and sometimes intimidating because of how introverted I am. It’s a lot easier for me to write an email to someone than talk on the phone. Because of this, I have had drama in my life. Miscommunications. Hurt feelings. Messes to clean up. You’d think I’d learn. Speaking to people face to face is the best way to communicate. And that takes time. Time is precious.

But then again, we spend time doing whatever we feel is important.

Over the past few weeks I have been led to take inventory of my time, my relationships, and my priorities. I’m not really all that pleased with what I am finding.

In much the same way that World War II got us out of the Depression, it is one of those things that is not wished for, yet the reality of it remains. One should not seek out war in order to bolster a country’s economy, nor should one wish for tragedy in order to bolster their position.

But the question remains, does tragedy benefit the pro gun crowd or the gun control zealots?

If you listen to the liberal mainstream media you are inundated with the self righteous fervor of liberty hating dogma that states that “such and such tragedy” is proof that people cannot be responsible for their own well being and as such shouldn’t have the right to keep and bear arms.

When it comes down to it, that is the only argument the gun control zealots believe in, because after all, they operable word is CONTROL, not…
